    One suggestion I do have for cereal vapes that I've had really nice results with is the dulce de leche. This flavor adds that sort of bottom of the bowl sweet milk flavor to the mix that reminds me of every bowl of cereal that I ever ate as a kid. Really good to me. YMMV. Good luck!

    For sweeteners, I use TFA Sweetener and Cotton Candy. For Vanilla, I most often use TFA Vanilla Swirl, Vanilla Bean Ice Cream, French Vanilla Cream, Vanilla Custard, and Vanilla Cupcake. Occasionally, I'll use the Vanilla Gelato and Vanilla Bourbon. I do not use store bought sucralose, vanilla...

    It's not that strict, just that most of us don't have a lot of experience with flavors made by other brands. With the ingredients above, you can make creams and custards (unsweetened) as supporting flavors for you juicy peach. You can see my post above about different bases, but, generally, many...

    YES!! Single flavor mixes will not work 95% of the time. Here's an old post that was helpful on that subject:

    Most of my flavorings are in the 20 - 30% range, so 6% PG/Nic would work for all of them from about 30 - 36% PG/70 - 64% VG. With such a small difference between 30/70 and 36/64, you may not even notice the difference. While I have never seen nicotine separate from anything I've ever mixed, I...

    :2cool: :vapor::toast: :D It's a lot easier to handle for sure. However, there are many syringes and syringe tapered syringes that make it a moot point anyway. Furthermore, since many recipes go as high as 30% in flavoring, you'll bump into the PG limitation, if, for example, you want to use a...

    I would start by searching this thread for fruit circles recipes. I have seen some good ones on here. Like many primary flavorings, they benefit from creams, vanillas and sweeteners. Good luck! :toast: :D :2cool: :vapor:

    I have to strongly agree with the others that recommend 100 mg/ml nic in VG. First of all, it allows you to use 1 drop for 1% in tests which is important. Also, the 100 mg/ml nic in VG is very much safer that in PG because even if you do get some on you, it won't be absorbed and you can just...

    A little goes a long way. I mix up a 10% solution (by weight) in PG and use 2-4 drops per 10 mls, or so. Drops, can convert to percentages, of course. It's a fraction of 1% to 1% of a 10% solution of citric acid. So, I might add 3 drops to a 300 drop mix of the 10% solution. So, not very much...

    Do both! Post away my dear. We all benefit from everyone sharing their creations. I, for one, would love to see your juice! :toast: :D :2cool: :vapor:

    Interesting suggestion, and one that I have always used myself. I vape with a 30/70 PG/VG ratio, and almost always mix the 30% PG ingredients first, then add the 70% VG portion, of which I always use PG nicotine. While this has worked well for me, I have had times when I got a cloudy mix, and...

    Many of the so called tank crackers are not water soluble and will turn cloudy when mixed. I mentioned this above, but members are still asking about it. Mix the flavor in PG and it will either eliminate this problem, or allow it to clear much faster than a week. Alternatively, as you suggest...

    At least one of the flavors is not water soluble, probably the lime. That'll cause the cloudiness. You can always premix the offending flavor with PG or others, then mix into the juice, and it will work better for you. Either way, it'll eventually blend and work just fine. By the way, if you can...

    Clear graham cracker is what I prefer. Less gunk factor, and you can read the amount desired in the syringe! :toast:

    Pany, you can use about 3 drops for each 1% and you will produce about 9 - 12 ml of juice, depending on drop size. Try the calculator ITTech provided. My blogs are here <<<<<<<< :toast: :D

    I would leave your recipe alone, but try and add sour notes to it. TFA has one, but there are several better from other vendors. Fresh squeezed orange juice is sweet due to it's very high fructose content. But, what is missing is the citric acid/sour note. So, try a few drops of 10% citric acid...

    Many thanks, Dinger. :thumb: I have the pretty much all the sampler packs. Good to get a sense of the flavorings, but in such small sizes, can't make a whole lot with it. For me, I have since purchased most of the flavorings in the 4 oz sizes and the ones I use most often (ADV's) in the 16 oz...

    Comment by 'Bill's Magic Vapor' in 'Milkshake Base Odyssey Journey'

    Each primary flavoring would have to taste tested on its own. I would make up a base of the milkshake, just like any other flavor, probably start about 20 - 25% of the mix with that base (complete) and add the peach (in this case) at 5 - 10%, and keep those two flavorings at 30% or less. For...
